Nintendo cooks up a recipe book-free future

The days of recipe books spattered with assorted sauces could be numbered.

Nintendo has created a Cooking Guide for its DS console which stores hundreds of recipes from across the world and talks budding Delias through them step by step.

Cooking Guide: Can't Decide What To Eat? - which follows the popular Brain Training game - responds to voice commands, leaving the cook's hands free instead of having to leaf through hefty recipe books.
